  1. I have a rising 5th grader. The amount of "work" they had these kids doing for the end of their 4th grade year was laughable. Almost none. Interestingly, the teachers kept telling them "this "you were already taught this, there aren't any new concepts to teach for the rest of the year." So apparently, all that happens from March onward is teaching to the STAAR test (in regular years). Fuck that. I feel like I got a pretty great education as a kid, and mine shocks me with the low level of spelling/writing etc. he can do, even though he gets great grades. More remote learning is going to suck ass, but I'm not sending him into a full week of closed classroom stuff. Also, I have nothing against Dr. Cruz (AISD superintendent) but he resigned months ago and is having to ride out his contract with no one chosen to replace him yet. Seems like a really bad time to have a leader with one foot out the door and probably wholly fucking sick of all the shit AISD specifically has had to deal with this past school year.
  2. I wouldn't be considering air travel for vacation purposes anytime in the next several months....kinda blows my mind.
  3. I think the Occam's Razor answer for me is that Barr is just Bannonesque --- simply wants to dismantle the systems that have kept the country going -- the "administrative state," if you will-- letting everything fall to pieces so the looting by the privileged class can continue completely unchecked and unabated.
  4. This is what weirds me out. I get that for whatever sick reason, Barr is all about that executive power and riding roughshod over checks and balances. But to do that for THIS particular executive who is an international embarrassment and is using that power to destroy the standing and institutions of the whole country? And he knew that going in.
  5. The Not So Ambiguously Gay Duo
  6. JFC. Fred looked like that Austrian freak who kept his daughter imprisoned in the basement and impregnated her multiple times. Seems about right.
  7. Soooo....how would that make Nestor his son?? Smells like bullshit from Gaetz and co.
  8. list of Scotus nominees to include: Ivanka, the My Pillow guy, Sheriff Joe Arpaio, and Diamond/Silk (D&S count as a 2-for-1 one nominee!) Don't ever say Trump doesn't support diversity
  9. My son doesn't get to go to camp next week (little neighborhood day camp that I was already a little uncomfortable with) because a kid in this week's camp went home sick w/fever.....doc diagnosed strep and discouraged covid test as "unwarranted"--parents insisted....what do you know, came back positive. So I guess all those kids are supposed to quarantine along with the lady running it. Or, maybe they do whatever they want to do and run around town. Meanwhile, my kid will be playing video games at home all day, all week, driving me nuts while I try to "work." Goddamnit. 78757 in case you wonder.
  10. Great ---- now if those fuckers would get out and actually vote this time around, in places where it counts, that'd be awesome. Otherwise who gives a fuck
  11. With all of the actual evidence of voter suppression, the "contrarians" want to keep the burden of proof on those who keep trying to leap through the obstacles put in place against voting. No motherfuckers, the burden of proof is on YOU to give us evidence that what we see and what is supported by the evidence is not what is happening.
  12. Tim Scott: I've "already said too much" ???? What the FUCK man ... where is your dignity.
  13. Man the Texags forum makes me want to stab my retinas. The very most anti-Trump comment is someone who acknowledges he'll vote for DT again because he "can't wrap his mind around voting for a Democrat." Another sample comment: Man they are pulling out all the stops to go after Trump. I don't know how he has withstood this type of constant barrage for the past three plus years. Americans that love this country should be praying for him. JFC, hook line and sinker those dipshits.
  14. Lately sometimes in the morning, I hear what sounds like an ominously low-flying plane, and I wonder if it's Trump releasing the nukes. What can we put past this guy
  15. there sure is a really deep state
  16. that sentence structure tho.....if the thugs are not the same people as the anarchists or the looters....who are the thugs? Que mysterioso!
  17. 29 snowflakes and counting....
  18. In that same Wapo article about Barr, it says the dude who drove the tanker into the MN crowd has been released. "No one was killed and his case has been deferred." Um, ok.
  19. That's my 'hood and I saw a massive traffic jam with a ton of people and kids at the NAO baseball fields on Morrow this morning, it was apparent that today's the first day of a soccer league or camp. Will be interesting to see what happens with kids and their summer activities saying fuck-it to social distancing. My kid is home doing nothing until the 15th as it stands now.
  20. I really want him to explain that fucking statement. There HAD to be follow-up, right? Or just let him do that kind of democracy-killing drive-by?
  21. but why? The "right" hates peaceful protestors. They loathe and mock Kaepernick as an "ungrateful thug." The very words my father used, and probably took from Hannity. They don't care because white dudes are the true victims...somehow. The minorities need to see how good we let them have it. This overcomes any principles about the bill of rights or equality. There's no redeeming people like this and there are a fuckload who grew up under segregation and like it that way. It sucks having this in my own family but the "good" boomers are outmatched and the others need to be heavily dissuaded from voting.
  22. ^^^ holy FUCK that's enraging.
  23. they were behind the metal barricade. They weren't storming shit.
  24. Well in this post-fact new reality, those protestors in Lafayette Square had it coming. That will be the accepted R narrative.
  25. Not advocating, but an angry mob pulling a Ceaucescu on him would be fitting.
